In the Cards. After playing with the Chicago Cubs for the past 2 seasons, free-agent CF Dexter Fowler signed a 5-year $82.5M contract with the St. Louis Cardinals. Normally, Cubs fans would be furious that he joined the Cards—their hated division rivals. But they’ll probably forgive Fowler, because he was such a huge part of the Cubs’ World Series win, including hitting a critical home run in Game 7. Throughout the season, Fowler was known for getting on base right away and setting the tone for the rest of the game; his 1st inning on-base percentage was an outrageous .479.
